Geelong students: University bus services change from Monday 1 September
From Monday 1 September 2025, we will be operating new bus service timetables for our Geelong campuses.
What’s changing?
- The additional bus service that travels from Barwon Valley Activity Centre (BVAC) directly to the Waterfront Campus will no longer operate.
- The intercampus service will still stop at BVAC under a new amended schedule.
- The Waterfront Express Service that operates from Try Boys (basketball stadium) in East Geelong direct to the Waterfront Campus, will now only operate during peak times and will be renamed to the Try Boys Shuttle.
